Coming together well! Rear diffuser should ease flow really well now. Headlights seem quite square rather than narrow but can you not peel them off again with some heat?
Surprised none of it's turned black after curing; tbh not the best time of year to start finishing but Vactan is the best direct to metal - gonna do a red oxide next before primer?
Door ramming?
I don't know the guy or what's been instructed or commissioned; does he do tarmac cars / FF hatchbacks ordinarily & which bits your putting on it?
Fab work's looking 1st rate; are you considering plating the various weak spots / reinforcing rear beam bolt holes & lower arm bolt holes? Could be an ideal time.
Standard inner rear arches IMO...
Tidy man; that rear bumper's great - V tempted (in time) to do mine like that body coloured.
Ha! Lurve it!
Get it all done the brightest pink to prove what a man you are
Here's another one looking / sounding good:-

We need to find out if these peeps are on here :D
Is this about specific fitment or what effect[s] such mounts have on the car?
Nick are you the guy that bought Nigels yellow atb / carbed / alpha ign nova like in your avatar?
Hey those look great can I order a pair?
A chemical treatment will never truly reverse one structure into another, however in my experience of sheet metalwork; vactan has the ability to react with bare metal better than any other initial...
Did I ask before (apologies if so) is there a good reason for going ecotech as a starting point or is it just for ease of M32?
Ok so even rear quarters are going to be in carbon? Impressive; slight shame it's a sunroof model or is this going also in favour of composite?!
Seats look of a good design and not dissimilar to...
Fit's looking really good; would you consider painting the silver intercooler & rad black?
Yeah those look mint with the bent & rusted adjusters
Coated parts look ace; you might consider vertical bolts dropped in from the top (should the worst ever happen).
That turbo & manifold should be good for huge horsepower; but the inlet is to...
Could make a 4MM plate spacer for the box then just fettle the 2 mounts
Just did mine with smith & allen; frequent changes work wonders on anything give abuse, be it gearbox or engine. Dropped the gearbox sump off to clear collected synchro fragments, set the gaskets,...

Where sir is your front number plate? :p
You'd be better off replacing the bushings for spherical bearings
That'll keep things cool AF; perfect for summer!
Revel in the subversion.
All an arb does is (in part) add strength (you no longer need), unsprung weight (I expect you wouldn't like) & add effective spring rate (when it now can just be achieved...
If anything over an open diff, an ATB would be better for even tire wear; If you are getting more wear than expected then there's too much weight on the front.
